The everyday life of brave space pilots in comparison with the advertising picture is much more prosaic, harsh and... more heroic. A deep space raid is a strength test for everyone. And in the crew of the starship "Monica" under the control of the true star wolf captain Red Gardon there are no ordinary personalities - and all of them are only now starting to become a real team, because if they do not work together, they simply cannot survive. On board their starship are a mysterious passenger from Long-Range Reconnaissance and a "dead" yacht selected in space, and with them a whole tangle of secrets and problems. These secrets lead to big money (which Gardon needs blood from his nose) and... gravitational collapse in the Galaxy sector, threatening the death of planets and millions of human casualties. The crew of "Monica," despite all its strife, undertakes to unwind this tangle to the end.
